OK, I think you are missing some details of the workflow used to get patches to Linus. As far as I know, he mostly pulls rather than accepts patches, that's one of the reasons there are so many different kernel repositories on bkbits.net. They are mostly queues of stuff waiting for Linus to pull them.
If that is correct, then what we really want is email when something lands on bkbits.net and is not yet included in Linus' tree. We can certainly set up a trigger to send email in that case. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitmover.com/lm - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
